The causes of high rate of population growth in Bangladesh are as follows-
i) Ignorance : Most of the people of our country are ignorant. They do not know about the problem of over population. So they do not take the measures to control the birth rate through family planning.
ii) Superstitions : Some rural and religious superstitions obstruct our people in family planning or birth control. For this reason, they do not be eager of family planning.
iii) Early marriage : Most of the boys and girls of our country get married before they become matured. This early marriage is a special cause of high rate of population growth.
iv) Lack of female education : Women constitute one half of the population of our country. But they are not educated. For this, the country cannot make them productive and they are becoming the problem of the country.
